Hi there, crafting friends! It’s design team member Walter back on the blog with you today. I'm really excited about this card that I'm sharing with you today.
It's another vintage themed card using the Silhouettes #1 stamp set from
I Brake for Stamps. I knew that I wanted to capture a nice
town/village scene as soon as I saw the stamp of the photographer with
the old camera. I thought of him as being a photographer hired to
capture the magic of a small town for a postcard. There he stands, high
up on the hill, focused down on the town below on a beautiful day.
Here's what I used to make it:
Doesn't it look like the quintessential New England town circa the early 1900's? It's so idyllic and peaceful, and a great reminder that life's most precious things truly are near at hand.

possibilities. The first stamp that I wanted to create with is the
one featured on today's card. It's the silhouette of a family standing
by each other and looking forward. There's a lot of love to be felt
from them. I envisioned them looking out at the stars in the night sky
and making a wish. Perhaps they're enjoying a warm summer night or
waiting for some July 4th fireworks? Either way, I feel a sense of
closeness and happiness when I see them. Here's what I used to make it:
